Answer 1

1- The correct answer is B. Kennedy's military policies encouraged more funding for the Special Forces. During Kennedy's administration, the Special Forces increased its capability in a 60%, adding more soldiers and resources to their ranks.

2- The correct answer is C, as the outcome of the Alliance for Progress was that the relations between the United States and Latin America did not improve.

The Alliance for Progress was a program of economic, political and social aid from the United States for Latin America between 1961 and 1970. Its origin is in the official proposal of President John F. Kennedy, in his speech of March 13, 1961, before a reception for Latin American ambassadors at the White House.

Public opinion received the Alliance for Progress with enthusiasm, but the program failed because, following the assassination of Kennedy, his successors limited US financial aid to Latin America, preferring bilateral agreements that favored military cooperation.

3- The correct answer is C. Kennedy prevented completion of missile bases in Cuba by approving a diplomatic treaty with the Soviet Union, which retired its missiles in exchange of the United States renounce to invade Cuba.

Answer 2

1. b) the Special Forces.
2. c) Relations between the United States and Latin America did not improve.
